An investigation of the aggregation behavior of carnation ring spot virus using dynamic light scattering Williams, Lloyd
Abstract
The technique of digital autocorrelation of intensity fluctuations of scattered laser light is used to investigate the aggregation behavior of carnation ringspot virus. It is hypothesized by the author that the aggregation rate (R) is given by [See Thesis for Equation] R is measured for a range of values of the dependent experimental variables, temperature (T), and virus concentration (v₀). And the dependence of the two aggregation parameters, the temperature of aggregation (T[sub c]) and the energy of aggregation (E[sub agg]), on the experimental variables is ascertained. Also certain physical properties of the virus are measured: size, molecular weight, and diffusion coefficient. The experimental accuracy of the apparatus is determined by performing a series of experiments on a known system of Latex spheres.
